Will you stop yelling?
Your hurting me...
My heart is aching,
I can’t breathe.
Can you leave me alone?
Your making me cry,
I feel empty and broken,
Don’t make me.
Do you want to make me angry?
It hurts keeping it in,
I wanna scream,
I’ll punch you...
I don’t care anymore, but do you?
You’ve pushed me to the limit,
I’ve been quiet for 13 years,
I just wanna let it out...
Your not a very good parent because I’m scared of you,
I flinch when you raise your hand suddenly,
You say, “I’ve never hit you.”
Oh, but I remember.
You spanked me with the belt because I didn’t eat,
You slapped me on the side of the face with your rings because I annoyed you,
You hit me in the back of the head with the brush when I cried at the knots in my hair,
You almost pushed me down the stairs because I couldn’t do math.
Please just stop yelling at me...I hate that I love you even after what you’ve done...
